Huntress researchers detailed an SEO-poisoning campaign on 13 October that harvests SSL VPN credentials through a lookalike WatchGuard download page, watchguard-vpn.net, and then delivers the legitimate, validly signed Mobile VPN with SSL installer. Earlier waves used trojanised installers, but this iteration contains no malware, so endpo…
Unit 42 (Palo Alto Networks) tracks a campaign, CL-UNK-1211, in which operators compromised government Linux infrastructure between October 2025 and April 2026. The operators used PHP and shell scripts that appear to be AI-generated, with conversational comments and step-by-step reasoning. They harvested credentials and went after databas…
Symantec reports that the Russia-linked APT28 (aka Swallowtail, Fancy Bear, Forest Blizzard, BlueDelta), which the U.S. government links to the GRU, targeted organizations in two NATO member states. Victims were a naval shipbuilder, a manufacturer of military aircraft engines and a law enforcement agency (thehackernews.com, cyberscoop.com…
Check Point researchers disclosed two high-risk vulnerabilities in LiteLLM, an open-source LLM gateway with almost 100,000 downloads a month. The gateway connects enterprise AI applications to providers such as OpenAI, Google and Anthropic. The flaws, CVE-2026-35029 and CVE-2026-59823, could let any user with an account on a vulnerable de…
The Wiz Customer Incident Response Team (CIRT) reports a growing number of intrusions in which an AI agent system ran the entire operation: finding entry points, harvesting credentials, pivoting across platforms and debugging its own scripts in real time. In one investigated case, the agent compromised a large multi-cloud organization (GC…
An attacker pushed forged commits to the default branches of two unrelated GitHub projects, hugo-paper and mevn-cli. The commits add a preinstall hook (scripts/preinstall.js) that downloads and silently runs a second-stage script from buildwithknexus.xyz during npm install or bun install. The commits copy the author, date and message of t…
A malicious version 0.7.4 of the mrmustard photonic quantum computing library (Xanadu) was published to PyPI on July 23, 2026, after the account of the project's lead maintainer (ziofil, Filippo Miatto) was compromised. Importing the package reads SSH private keys, AWS credentials and the Kubernetes config, then sends them to an attacker-…
Two beta versions in the @joyfill npm scope, published on July 28, 2026, carried the same blockchain C2 loader seen in the earlier astro.config.mjs attack, which the article ties to the PolinRider campaign. The attacker published through the legitimate scope (a form-builder SDK with three maintainers) under the beta dist-tag. The maliciou…
Researchers at SafeDep analyzed a macOS implant recovered from a compromised workstation. Infection began on 2026-07-26 with a paid YouTube video ad impersonating TradingView that led to a fake .pkg installer. The malware is a remote-controlled task runner, not a single-purpose stealer. It persists via a LaunchAgent that re-fetches a shel…
In September 2026, researchers reported an attack that began inside a live AI coding assistant session at a software company. The attacker gained control of a developer's session, and the assistant recommended a PyPI package that looked normal. The developer installed it, and a hidden infostealer took source code, repository secrets and h…
On October 5, 2026, the RubyGems account reqthrottle3474 published 42 malicious gems within about an hour. Most are named for cryptocurrency developer tooling (e.g. eth-keystore-utils, bip39-wordlist-utils, btc-wallet-tools), and the last 16 typosquat real gems (bitcion, etheremu.rb, kecack, solaan-ruby). The code runs during gem install …
F5 Labs published its March 2026 CASI Leaderboard update, which is now dominated by OpenAI and Anthropic. Z.ai's GLM-5 performs well on price and capability but has a weak security posture (CASI 37.56 vs 96.61 for Claude Opus 4.6 and 92.58 for GPT-5.2). The report also spotlights Sugar-Coated Poison (SCP), a multi-turn technique that grad…
Unit 42 reports that threat actors are moving supply chain malware C2 from hardcoded endpoints to Web3 mechanisms, so an entire botnet or worm infrastructure can be re-pointed with a single blockchain transaction. The ChainDrop npm worm (Shai-Hulud family, 400+ npm packages) and the PolinRider campaign (npm, Go modules, Packagist) target …
Check Point Research disclosed two high-risk vulnerabilities in LiteLLM, the open-source AI gateway that sits between enterprise applications and providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic and Google. A user with minimal privileges could take full control of the gateway, read sensitive files, execute arbitrary code and harvest the provider API k…
The threat actor behind the GhostAction supply chain campaign has expanded beyond malicious GitHub Actions workflows. According to OpenSourceMalware, it now phishes open-source maintainers and plants a second-stage credential stealer disguised as a font file. The shift appears to follow GitHub's October 9 block on the malicious workflow, …
Between 19 and 22 October 2026, an operator published 15 npm packages whose names end in testmetest, carrying a Miasma-family self-propagating worm. The malicious versions steal credentials, spread to other packages and repositories, and install a wiper that deletes the victim's home directory when the stolen GitHub token is revoked. Safe…
SafeDep reports that the PolinRider loader family now resolves its C2 servers from Ethereum mainnet. The loader reads small transactions from operator wallets and decodes the recipient address as an IP:port. SafeDep confirmed 35 GitHub repositories carrying the loader at HEAD on 2026-09-30 (7,578 stars and 2,884 forks combined). The inves…
